Sagan is having a great year, especially considering that his team is not one of the strongest.I wonder how his arc en ciel year measures up historically. He won't win a grand tour, but he's winning some very big one day prizes this year, and maybe a green jersey in the Tour.

And he's getting some real help from his team. Nice tow by Kreuziger yesterday left him in great position for the sprint. Alberto's woes may free up more team help for him, too. Agree about how strong he is. that second acceleration for the win was amazing.
